RSC/MP Installation and Configuration Guide

E Best Practices Guide
This appendix contains information intended to help you use RSC/MP effectively,
including:
Three conceptual models showing a range of RSC/MP configuration styles, see
Model Configuration Scenarios on page E-1.
Notes about configuring home terminals for RSC/MP, see Host Home-Terminal
Considerations on page E-12.
Model Configuration Scenarios
This subsection describes three configuration scenarios. Your own configuration will
differ from these scenarios according to the requirements, goals, and available
resources in your RSC/MP installation. These scenarios are provided only as a
conceptual framework that might be helpful when making choices that will affect
availability and throughp ut in RSC/MP.
The following discussion is based on the use of TCP/IP as the network protocol. Within
this subsection, ―NIF‖ refers to the Piccolo TCP/IP network interface (NIFSOCK).
Similar methods and considerations apply to RSC/MP installations that use other
protocols.
Within this subsection, [RESOLVER] refers to the RESOLVER section of the Piccolo
configuration file.
Scenario 1
In a development environment or low-volume, occasional-use production environment,
redundancy and high throughput may not be requirements. In this case, a configuration
similar to the following can be used (see Figure E-1):
